SONG OF THE WEEK #132: Pretenders - "Kid"

1980. Chrissie Hynde in imperial form as a performer and a songwriter. To say nothing of the looks. "Kid" is a classic three minute pop song, with poignant lyrics, gorgeous vocal melody and the sort of clever, concise guitar moment that makes me think of Robbie Krieger's brilliant solo in "My Eyes Have Seen You".
